Learning Proper Form Before Increasing Weights
Ngl I used to get tempted to increase weights every time I went to the gym 😭 but lately I've been focusing more on getting my form right first. Some exercises feel completely different when you actually slow down and pay attention to the movement. I don't wanna develop bad habits just because I'm rushing to get stronger. How did you guys learn proper form when you were beginners?
Honestly watching videos and recording my own sets helped me notice mistakes I couldn't feel while lifting
Bro getting humbled by lighter weights is part of the process 😭
I used to copy random gym people until I realized everyone has different form lo
Ngl asking experienced lifters for help made such a difference for me
I started using mirrors to check my posture but getting a trainer to correct me was even better
Slow reps are underrated because you actually feel which muscles are working
Don't rush the weights man 💀 Building good habits now will save you so much trouble later
Which exercise was the hardest for you to get the form right on? Mine was definitely squats
